Shaving and waxing are a pain. At Westside Aesthetics in Brentwood, hair treatments can keep you smooth with minimal pain and discomfort.

Affordable Laser Hair Removal in LA

Westside Aesthetics uses only the most safe, painless and effective systems for light based hair removal. In our office we use the Soprano Diode laser.

The Soprano Is a new 810 nm diode laser (the industry gold standard) that is completely painless. Without exaggeration, it is by far the least uncomfortable laser on the market today. Instead of a pulse method of treatment, the Soprano treats in a continuous motion.

The laser energy does not go into the skin as a painful blast, but rather heats the hair follicles gradually and gently. This system is about twice as fast as any other system that we have used and is just as effective. Most patients are hair free within four to five treatments.

Don’t take our word for it – we encourage our patients to gather information and reviews from the web prior to treatment. You will see that this really is a step above any other laser hair removal technology.

We thoroughly cool the area before and during the procedure to ensure maximum comfort. Although it is not usually needed, we also have numbing creams available for those with very sensitive skin.

We can remove hair from any part of your body. Areas most commonly treated are:

Underarms

Back

Chest

Legs

Bikini area

Upper lip

Chin

Sideburns

People with light skin and dark hair will see the best results in the fewest number of treatments. Darker skin requires more treatment sessions. Because the light targets darker tissue, darker skin will absorb more energy. We use less energy when treating people with darker skin to prevent damage.

We recommend that you stay out of the sun for a few weeks before and during your treatment period.

Light hair is more difficult to remove. There is currently no technology which will reliably remove grey or blonde hair, but we can remove red and light brown hair effectively. It takes a little longer, but our treatments are effective even on darker skin pigmentations and lighter hair colors.

The Diode laser hair removal system typically requires three to five sessions. You may need a touch up session after six months to remove any stray hairs and complete the process.

The Soprano is remarkably painless, but you will need about 4 to 6 sessions. After the conclusion of a laser hair removal series of treatments, any additional treatments that you need to touch up the results will be at 25% off.

During your free initial consultation, Dr. Rivkin will evaluate your unique needs and explain the procedure in detail. You will have the opportunity to view before and after photos, so that you will know what to expect from the treatment.
